October
Pros: Loved the freestyle dining and wonderful entertainment!
Cons: Don't have any cons

We were pleasantly surprised how much fun cruising can be. Didn't know what to expect, but loved the freestyle dining and felt so relaxed. The crew was amazing and so friendly and helpful! The entertainment was very enjoyable and always something to do. We can't wait to plan our next cruise with Norwegian!

Cruise to Bermuda
May
Pros: Great staff. Great food
Cons: Lengthy wait to get on tender
Recommended: Yes
Had a great experience on the Pearl. From embarking to disembarking. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Food was very good in the Indigo dining room and O’Sheehans (except the wings were not). Room was clean with a surprising amount of storage.

Panama Canal
November
Pros: Food was generally good but specialty dining was exceptional. The staff was friendly and efficient. We enjoyed the days at sea. The Panama Canal was a unique experience.
Cons: Ports were mostly okay but the visit to Cartagena was marred by the agressiveness of the street vendors. They were the worst we have experienced on any of our cruises.
Recommended: Yes
We had an excellent time. We have sailed NCL before and would gladly do so again

Alaska with Friends
July
Pros: Free style dining is a favorite of ours - casual attire, go when you want; great specialty restaurants (Le Bistro and Cagney's were our favorites). We had a penthouse and particularly liked having access to the specialty restaurant Moderno for breakfast and lunch; it was far from the crowd and a welcomed break from the craziness of the main dining rooms and buffet. Another pro was the staff who were friendly and efficient. It was not a mega ship which we prefer.
Cons: Our forward-facing cabin (9002) was disappointingly dark with a large window, but the door to access the balcony had no window. The space next to the door to the balcony had a floor to ceiling drapery, but there was no window behind it. For a penthouse price, I was disappointed. The view once on the balcony was great, but there was a sign on the door that said we should not open the door or be on the balcony while underway, that it should only be opened while in port. Maintenance on the Pearl was better than the Sun, but still needed some work. Chairs were pretty comfortable in most areas of the ship except in Cagney’s Steakhouse which were by far the most uncomfortable chairs I have ever sat in. Norwegian’s communications have never been as good as Princess who provides a check list and, in our opinion, makes things clearer overall. Norwegian encourages you to prepay things but neglects to tell you that you could use your shipboard credit if you wait to pay on the ship.
Recommended: Yes
The port stops for the cruise were very desirable, but the port times were weird. We did not get into Juneau until 2pm – granted we didn’t leave until 10pm, but it didn’t give much time to actually see it. Skagway was good, getting in at 7am and leaving at 8:15 pm. Ketchikan arrival was at 6am and departure was at 1:30pm. The worst was Victoria where we did not arrive until 6pm and departure was at midnight. Granted this did allow us to see Butchart Gardens in the evening and see their fireworks which were great, but this was the night before disembarkation, so we totally missed dinner (the last meal on the ship) and were stressed about packing as we had no time to finish packing once our shore excursion ended (we didn’t get back to the ship until 11:45pm! This being said, we had a great time – especially in Glacier Bay where the weather was gorgeous.
